Critics Consensus

For audiences attuned to the Zellners' utterly unique wavelength, Sasquatch Sunset offers a moving -- if often inscrutable -- look at our relationship with the natural world.

Tara Brady

Irish Times

Multiple walkouts at Sundance suggest that the film is too languorous for some tastes and too gross for others. Hang in there and it’s rewardingly novel, touchingly human and agreeably nutty.

Rated: 4/5

How audacious, beguiling and disturbing is this crazy, absurdist fantasy? Let me count the ways.

Financial Times

Farcical gross-out notwithstanding, the film has a poignant, lyrical spirit underlined by its soundtrack of mock-folksy flute and guitar. It is majestically shot by Mike Gioulakis, capturing the luminous vistas you might associate with Terrence Malick.

Rated: 5/5

Sasquatch Sunset is by no means an easily digestible film...However, if you’re able to commit, you will be able to witness the star power of Riley Keough in full force as she single-handedly brings this story to life.

Rated: 3/5

Film Inquiry

In a world where every day brings us news of another reboot, remake, sequel, prequel, requel, and threequel, it is nice to know that insane, strange, and stimulating cinema still exists.

Curiosity drove my interest in Sasquatch Sunset, but that didn’t necessarily sustain it, even for its brief 88 minutes. But you hardly ever see movies like this get made, and you have to admire its spirit and gumption.

One of the worst movies I have ever seen. It starts with obnoxious, gross humor (vomit, boners, etc.) and turns in a drama documentary.

This was torture watching it. A group of actors in prosthetic Sasquatch suits does not make a film! If the producers and director wanted to make a statement about the so called cruel world, this was a sham! No acting, just could have been done by an amateur. horrid waste of time n money! Pass this one by, the supposed statement it makes us already well known. Lol, at least have sub titles....

No entertainment value whatsoever! It's pretty much what you'd think a group of ape like creatures would do in their lifetimes.
